For our final intern spotlight, we’re excited to highlight Cole Halbert, a senior at UCLA studying Economics. This summer, Cole is interning with our Private Real Estate team in our California office, where he brings his innovative ideas and strong analytical background to our projects. Cole's contributions have already made a significant impact, and we eagerly anticipate the continued value he will bring. Read on below to learn more about Cole: 1. What is the best piece of professional advice you have ever received? The best advice in my career is the importance of prioritizing quality and accuracy in my work. While it can be crucial to finish things quickly, it is better to get it right the first time than to have to go back and fix a mistake. This advice has helped me establish dependability and create opportunities to be trusted with more responsibility in any job. 2. What are you looking forward to at CenterSquare? So far, my experience at CenterSquare has been everything I hoped for - I have worked on a lot of interesting projects and met great people. I am looking forward to going to Conshohocken at the end of the summer for the intern farewell event and meeting everyone in person! 3. How do you stay updated on industry trends and developments, and how has this knowledge impacted your work? I like to read relevant articles from the Wall Street Journal, publications from the big real estate companies and research firms, and CRE Analysts on LinkedIn. I also try to listen in on all conversations in the office about real estate and macroeconomics. Staying informed gives me a better perspective on the work I am doing and helps me make more educated decisions. 4. As a child, what career did you want to have when you “grew up?” I always wanted to be a professional athlete in the NBA, NFL, or MLB. Technically, I can still declare for the draft until I graduate from college, so I can keep dreaming that I have a chance. 5. What is at the top of your bucket list? I want to do the “SoCal Challenge” of surfing and snowboarding in the same day. #CenterSquare #SummerInternship #Spotlight

🎉 Happy National Intern Day! 🙌 Today, we recognize the eager and creative contributions of interns everywhere. From bringing fresh perspectives to learning and growing with us, you make a huge difference.

It was a great day for everyone! Whether you're interning remotely or in person, your hard work doesn't go unnoticed. Tag an intern who deserves a shout-out and let's show them some love! #NationalInternDay #InternAppreciation #FutureLeaders #CenterSquare

How do you approach personal growth and continuous learning? I approach growth and personal development by acting like a sponge when I'm around others. I love learning from people's experiences and perspectives and applying their lessons to my day-to-day. 2. What's the most significant lesson you've learned thus far, and how has it impacted you? The most valuable lesson I've learned so far in my life is the importance of developing good habits, eliminating bad ones, and the value of consistency. 3. What are your top three productivity tips for a successful workday? My three productivity tips for a successful day are to schedule out my responsibilities, cut out distractions, and focus on each task individually rather than multitask. 4. As a child, what career did you want to have when you “grew up?” When I was young, I wanted to be a marine biologist because of Shark Week. 5. What is something that brings you joy? Spending time with friends and family brings me the most joy. #CenterSquare #SummerInternship #Spotlight
